Chapter 108 Good days are ahead!(1/2)
Lu Lu waited until Lan Yu and the others had disappeared before ordering them to continue on their way.
Firstly, he didn't want to follow Lan Yu's butt and eat dust. Secondly, he also wanted to find another way to go around and try to minimize the impact of today.
Although Lu Lu ordered his people to take a detour, he could still vaguely hear the laughter of the people around him.
Lu Lu suppressed his anger until he met the Crown Princess, and he couldn't help but complain.
"Who the hell is Lan Yu? He dares to make way for our Lu family!"
Crown Princess Lu ordered people to serve tea and spoke warmly to comfort her.
"Don't mention the petty disputes. I have called you here this time because I have something important to entrust you to handle!"
"Oh, by the way, what is that you are holding in your hand?"
When Lu Lu heard what his eldest sister said, he realized that he was still holding a heavy guy in his hand.
"Sister, this is a good thing. I found it when I took stock of the pawn shop's accounts two days ago!"
As Lu Lu said that, he put the things in his hands on the table, then opened the red cloth wrapping it, and instantly revealed an emerald cabbage.
The Crown Princess's eyes widened when she saw this thing. Ever since she married into the Prince's Mansion, she has been coveting the jade cabbage in Concubine Guo Hui's palace. She asked people to search for it for a long time but could not find anything suitable.
Some time ago, I heard that Concubine Guo Hui gave this thing to Zhu Yunxi, and she was so angry that she had the idea of stealing it.
However, how much time had passed before this thing actually fell into the hands of the Lu family!
"Second brother, how did you get this thing?"
"Didn't I tell you just now? I saw it when I was taking inventory of the pawn shop's warehouse."
"My younger brother thought that my eldest sister would be useful in dealing with favors in the palace. Even if I don't give it away, it would look good in the house, so I hurriedly brought it to my eldest sister!"
Mrs. Lu held the jade cabbage and kissed it again and again. She couldn't put it down.
"I have been thinking about this thing for many years, and it finally fell into my hands, hahaha!"
Mrs. Lu stroked the cabbage for a long time, then reluctantly took her hand back.
"Although I really want to keep it, for Yunwen's important event, I can only donate this thing..."
"By the way, have you brought the pawn tickets?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Lu quickly took out a few pawn tickets from his sleeves and spread them on the table.
"Bring them all!"
"It is said that a royal guard came to work as a guard and worked for a year."
Mrs. Lu took a look at the ticket, and when she saw a white glaze child's pillow on it, her expression suddenly changed.
"Where is this thing now?"
Lu Lu stretched his head to take a look and said calmly.
"You said this broken pillow should still be in the warehouse of the pawn shop. If eldest sister likes it, my brother will send someone to deliver it tomorrow!"
Upon hearing this, Mrs. Lu quickly waved her hands and said.
"No, no... quickly order someone to destroy this thing. It's best to destroy it to the point where nothing is left, and then kill the person who did this..."
When Lu said this, he made a gesture of wiping his neck.
"Be sure to get rid of all the insiders, and don't reveal the slightest clue!"
Seeing that the eldest sister spoke so solemnly, Lu Lu seemed to have thought of something and said with a serious expression.
"yes!"
"Brother, we'll do it when we get back. We won't leave any traces behind!"
After Mrs. Lu finalized the matter with her brother, she asked about the three great sages recommended by Huang Zicheng.
"How did you find the person you asked to find last time?"
"When I got back to eldest sister, I found those people. Two of them also sent people to send gifts and invitations, but the effect was not very good..."
"Yang Xinluo's son rejected us directly. Gao Ming didn't even pay attention to the people we sent. The people we sent stayed at his door for three days, but he didn't say a word."
"There is also Qin Hengbo, who lives in Yuhuatai outside the south of the city, but I was told that he is busy making elixirs now and has no time to talk to us!"
Lu's eyebrows stood up when she heard this, and she hated iron for not being able to become steel.
"What a waste, he can't even do such a small thing!"
"Give me their address, and I'll go and invite them in person another day!"
Lu Lu was stunned when he heard this.
"Sister, isn't this bad?"
"You are a royal princess, how can you condescend to invite those few country men? This is too much honor!"
"big?"
Mr. Lu snorted coldly when he heard this.
"Don't even think about it. Now that the prince is gone, how much dignity do I, the princess, still have?"
"If people still recognize me as the Crown Princess and are willing to sell me my reputation, I can just kneel down and kowtow to them!"
"After you go back, continue to send people to keep an eye on it. In a few days, the Imperial Palace will personally invite you!"
While the Crown Princess Lu was thinking about how to invite the three great sages to stand up for her son, Zhu Yunxi was in a daze over a letter.
"Who the hell is Yang Xinluo? Why does he want to see me?"
"Reporting to Your Highness, according to my observation, this person should be a fan of your books, and would like to discuss the issue of story books with you, right?"
"Oh...so that's it..."
"How embarrassing is this? I'm still young and can't discuss the plot with him..."
"How about this? I'll write him a reply..."
Zhu Yunxi picked up his pen and started writing. Before long, a letter had been written.
"If he comes again, just give him this letter."
Zhu Yunxi threw down the letter and ran to the warehouse to follow Zhu Gui, the good-for-nothing guy, holding the money and giggling.
"Uncle Thirteen, what did I say before? We can definitely make a lot of money by opening a bookstore!"
"At that time, you said that I was too whimsical and disliked the meager income of these three melons and two dates. You must be convinced this time!"
Zhu Gui sat on the pile of silver, with a silver ingot in his left hand and a large silver collar in his right hand. He couldn't put it down.
Suddenly hearing that Zhu Yunxi was settling an old score with him, he hurriedly nodded and pecked at the rice.
"I'm convinced, I'm convinced, who would have thought that opening a bookstore can be so profitable!"
"In just ten days, we earned more than ten thousand taels of silver!"
"If you kid hadn't been stubborn and unwilling to sell your books in other bookstores, we would have made more money now!"
Zhu Yunxi rolled his eyes when he heard this.
"What do you know? I am doing this to make our Sanwei Bookstore famous!"
"As long as the reputation of Sanwei Bookstore is publicized, we can sit and count money in the future!"
Zhu Gui heard what Zhu Yunxi said and hurriedly came over.
"Eldest nephew, do you have a way to make money again? Come and tell me quickly and let Uncle Thirteen open your eyes!"
Zhu Yunxi raised his head and said proudly.
"That's natural!"
"The bookstore is just our first step. In the second step, we have to set up a platform and collect other people's words and sell them for money. Then we will set up newspapers, schools, factories, and scientific research..."
"In short, our good days are yet to come!"
Zhu Gui listened to what his grandson said, but felt lonely. Except for the school and the factory, he had never heard anything else.
"Eldest nephew, please tell me in detail, what are we going to do in the future?"
"We want..."
Just when Zhu Yunxi wanted to instill business ideas into Zhu Gui, Xiaoqi, a member of the Imperial Guard, hurried over.
"His Royal Highness, Grandson of the Third Emperor, Master Hu has sent a humble post to inform you that His Majesty is eager to see you and asks you to return to the palace as soon as possible!"
"ah?"
Zhu Yunxi, who had been so proud just now, turned pale with fright when he heard that the old man wanted to see him.
When Zhu Gui heard this, he felt sweat on his forehead and cramps in his calves.
"Have you mentioned this king?"
Jin Yiwei Xiaoqi glanced at Zhu Gui and then shook his head.
"Master Hu didn't say anything, so it probably doesn't concern His Highness Prince Yu!"
